The moment Becca told me Tally took her to see her mother, I knew what she was going to say. Allison had never been very kind to Becca when she used to come visit, and it often caused us to argue when she was here.
The one thing I hated above all else was people picking on children by judging their appearance. Becca may have been bigger than Tally back then, but it wasn’t Allison’s place to say something. It just showed how cruel she was.
“Your car is waiting out front, Mr. Valentino,” Evette said from my door, causing me to nod.
“Thank you, Evette. Please go ahead and enjoy your day.”
The woman worked hard for me, and I was grateful. But even with the minor distraction, I couldn’t stop thinking about Becca and Allison.
The fire in Becca’s eyes was clear, and I knew without a doubt she gave Allison hell.
